Proud Boys, Oath Keepers, and our Veterans
America is no stranger to extremist political groups, a phenomenon further highlighted on January\xa06th. However, one thing we don't understand clearly enough is the overlap with our veteran\xa0community. On this episode Rick speaks with\xa0Ken Harbaugh, veteran and co-producer of "Against All Enemies," a documentary exploring why veterans are drawn into extremist groups like the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers. Harbaugh discusses the search for belonging post-military service, the political endorsement of these groups, and the threat they pose to democracy. The conversation highlights the importance of personal outreach, the role of misinformation, and the need for alternatives that provide veterans with a sense of purpose. Harbaugh calls for awareness and action to prevent the exploitation of veterans by organizations aiming to undermine democratic foundations.\n\n\ufeffTimestamps:\n[00:01:25] Against All Enemies\n[00:11:08] What are their objectives?\n[00:12:48] A feeling of betrayal\n[00:20:22] The one who missed the war\n\nFollow Resolute Square:\nInstagram\nTwitter\nTikTok\nFind out more at Resolute Square\nLearn more about your ad choices.
